What is Emu Oil?
Emu Oil is derived from
the fat of the Emu (Kalaya) bird, which is native to Australia. The Emu
(Kalaya) bird is a relative to the Ostrich and is the second-largest living
bird by height! mu oil was originally used by Australian aborigines and
is now marketed for use for many conditions. After the EMU it is processed
for its red meat, the fat that remains is processed 5 times to a fine rich
- chemical-free Emu Oil. Emu Oil made up of essential fatty acids and antioxidants
such as vitamins A and E, absorbs well into the skin, stimulates cell regeneration,
and anti-inflammatory.

The EMU is a flightless, grey-feathered ratite bird
of Australia, closely related to the ostrich. Emu oil is obtained from a thick pad
of fat on the back of the bird that was initially provided by nature to protect
the animal from the extreme temperatures of its Australian homeland. For centuries,
the aborigines of Australia have been applying Emu oil to their wounds with excellent
results. Today, more and more it is being added to products to increase their effectiveness.
It is found in foods, muscle pain relievers, skin care products, and natural soaps.
Emu oil is non-irritating. Its color varies from light ivory to yellow to light
orange, there's no guarantee of how each batch will look and feel.
Our Emu oil is a blend of both the lighter and heavier fractions of emu oil and
has a creamy consistency. Refined using chemical-free filtering to form pure Emu
oil doesn't contain any fillers, dyes, or perfumes.
Some of its known properties are anti-bacterial,
anti-inflammatory, skin regenerative, high in oleic acid (oleic acid has better
skin-penetrating qualities than vegetable oils), moisturizing, doesn't clog pores,
penetrates through several layers of skin. The oil is almost odorless but this will
vary from batch to batch. We have never had a batch that had a strong or objectionable
odor.
Some of its known uses are Assists with the healing
of bedsores. When applied to a new cut, scrape or burn, assists with the prevention
of scars. Provides sunburn relief. Makes a wonderful massage oil for muscle aches
and strains. It's a soothing sensual oil. Very helpful for arthritis pain and inflammation.
Provides canker sore relief. Useful for diaper and heat rash. Great as a massage
on children who have "growing pains" in their extremities.
Assists with the prevention of stretch marks; once
stretch marks are present, assists with eliminating accompanying dryness and itchiness.
Makes tight skin more supple. Good skin lubricant; also useful in sensual applications.
Emu oil, when first applied to the skin, is greasy;
however, within 5-10 minutes one notices that the oil is slowly being absorbed by
the skin leaving a great feeling of overall smoothness on the skin. You can use
it straight or you can add essential oils of your choice. The bottle of Emu oil
should be shaken ever so lightly to mix the contents before each use. Store in a
cool, dark place, away from direct sun and heat. Shelf life when properly stored
is 2 years.
